Two-time PGA TOUR winner Steven Bowditch is in Las Vegas for his fifth Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.

In his last start at the Safeway Open, the 33-year-old was the worst finisher in the 144-man field at 13-over 78-79=157, missing the cut by 16 shots. Dating to last season, that's his sixth straight MC (eight of last 10) and now has 24 consecutive rounds of par or worse. At last year's Shriners, the transplanted Texan was the worst finisher of those that made the 36-hole cut with a 80/MDF (68-71-83). Last season, he finished 179th in the FedExCup standings with 15 missed cuts in 26 events and one top 10 -- T10 at the 32-man no-cut Hyundai TOC. Bowditch is in the final season of full-exempt status from his win at the 2015 Byron Nelson. Nov 2 - 10:21 AM

The 33-year-old ended 2015 No. 72 in the Official World Golf Ranking and checks in this week at No. 151. After finishing a career-best 20th in the FedExCup standings last season, he limps into the Deere at 173rd. The Flower Mound, Texas, resident is exempt thru the 2016-17 season from his second TOUR win at the 2015 AT&T Byron Nelson. He's a dismal 11-for-24 this season with two top 25s, one top 10 (T10, Hyundai TOC). The Aussie is 3-for-5 at the par-71 TPC Deere Run, missing the cut last year and in 2012, and cashing T11/2014, T12/2013, and T38 on debut in 2011. His career scoring average (16 rounds) is a more-than respectable 68.44. Aug 10 - 9:42 PM

Steven Bowditch has secured a paycheck for the second straight week following a 2-under-par 34-34=68 during round two of the DEAN & DELUCA Invitational, posting 3-under 137 at halftime.

The Aussie missed half of the possible fairways and landed 11 greens in regulation. It was work around the greens that helped him survive and advance, getting up-and-down a perfect 8-for-8 of his missed greens. The lone blemish of the round came in the form of a three-putt on the par-3 13th hole, as he landed 55'7" from the hole on approach, and couldn't convert the 6'3" attempt for par. Through two rounds, Bowditch has gained 4.220 strokes over the field with 97 percent of those strokes being gained with the flat stick in round one. The Aussie will need to find that spark again over the weekend if he wants to remain in contention. May 27 - 7:00 PM

Defending champ Steven Bowditch back-pedaled to a 5-over-par 38-37=75 in the third round of the AT&T Byron Nelson and at 3-over 213, will not have a Sunday tee time.

Bowditch was one of 17 players at T67 after two rounds had been completed so a second cut of low 70 and ties was required after 54 holes. He made the 36-hole cut on the number after opening in 68-70, but stumbled to two birdies against three bogeys and two double bogey-6s in the third round. On the plus side, he entered the week off five consecutive missed cuts with a cumulative 50-over-par during the stretch, so getting to the third round was a small step in the right direction. Joining the Aussie on the pine for Sunday are: 209- Andrew Landry; OQer Conrad Shindler ... 210- Derek Fathauer; Cameron Percy ... 211- Greg Owen; OQer Lance Lopez ... 212- Marc Turnesa ... 213- Andrew Loupe.
